Dalit is the name that we chose for ourselves when Brahminism declared us untouchable. Dalit means broken. Broken by suffering. Broken by caste: the world's oldest longest - running dominator system. yet although Dalit means broken it also means resilient. Caste one of the oldest systems of exclusion in the world is thriving. Despite the ban on Untouchability 70 years ago caste impacts 1.9 billion people in the world. Every 15 minutes a crime is perpetrated against a Dalit person. The average age of death for Dalit women is just 39. And the wreckages of caste are replicated here in the U.

She ties Dalit oppression to fights for liberation among Black Indigenous Latinx femme and Queer communities examining caste from a feminist abolitionist and Dalit Buddhist perspective - - and laying bare the grief trauma rage and stolen futures enacted by Brahminical social structures on the caste - oppressed. Soundararajan's work includes embodiment exercises reflections and meditations to help readers explore their own relationship to caste and marginalization and to step into their power as healing activists and changemakers. She offers skills for cultivating wellness within dynamics of false separation sharing how both oppressor and oppressed can heal the wounds of caste and transform collective suffering.
